While a chemical is certainly possible, please do not jump from a light test at 12 DPO to an ectopic. There's no reason to do that, and the vast majority of the time (I mean like 99.9%) of the time people come to me with fear of ectopic it's not ectopic at all. At this stage of gestation it is like worrying about your house catching on fire - is it possible, yes, does it happen, yes, but the chance that it will happen to you is pretty slim.
